Abstract

Abstract:
This study discusses the limitations of historical cost accounting information under inflationary conditions by introducing a review of the previous literature on inflation accounting.
         The study concludes that historical-cost financial statements prepared underinflationary conditions could be misleading. Furthermore, inflation impairs the financial accounting role a basis for decision-making. Hence, the need for the adjustment of the historical cost financialstatements to reflect currenteconomic realities becomes inevitable.
